Note 2. Liquidity and Financial Condition

At June 30, 2023, the Company had approximate balances of cash and cash equivalents of $289.2 million, working capital of $408.4 million, total stockholders’ equity of $1.2 billion and an accumulated deficit of $839.7 million. To date, the Company has, in large part, relied on equity financing to fund its operations and growth. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company sold 3,575 Bitcoin for proceeds of approximately $89.2 million. The Company monitors its balance sheet on an ongoing basis and continuously evaluates the level of Bitcoin retained from monthly production in consideration of cash requirements and its ongoing operations and expansion. Bitcoin is classified on the balance sheet as a current asset due to its ability to be sold in a highly liquid marketplace and the Company’s intent to liquidate its Bitcoin to support its operations when needed.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company issued 15,877,000 shares of common stock, at a weighted average price of $11.87 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $184.7 million. During July 2023, the Company issued 570,645 shares of common stock, at a weighted average price of $11.78 per share, for net proceeds of approximately $6.6 million (see Note 13. Stockholders’ Equity).

Inflation

The Company has experienced, and is experiencing, the impact of domestic and global inflationary pressures largely outside of its control, as well as the impact of central banks’ responses to such pressures. This inflationary pressure impacts the Company’s cost structure by increasing the cost of materials, parts, and labor, making both its operations and development more expensive, despite a continued focus on controlling our costs where possible. The development of the Corsicana Facility has been impacted by increased materials prices, labor costs, and higher rates for services, all of which may adversely affect the Company’s ability to complete the planned expansion on time and within its anticipated budget. Management is unable to accurately predict when, or if, these inflationary pressures will subside, or whether and to what extent a broad-based economic recession will arise in connection with these pressures. As a result, management is unable to predict the impact these inflationary pressures and possible follow-on conditions may have on the business and results of operations, as well as access to financing. See the Company’s 2022 Annual Report for additional discussion regarding the potential impacts of sustained, elevated inflationary pressures may have on its operations and plans for expansion.
